1125 GPUGRID 11/9/2012 12:08:53 PM Requesting new tasks for NVIDIA
1126 GPUGRID 11/9/2012 12:08:55 PM Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks
1127 GPUGRID 11/9/2012 12:08:55 PM No tasks sent
1128 GPUGRID 11/9/2012 12:08:55 PM No tasks are available for the applications you have selected.
1129 GPUGRID 11/9/2012 12:08:55 PM Tasks won't finish in time: BOINC runs 99.7%% of the time; computation is enabled 100.0%% of that

there are no tasks in queue or running.. sitting idle. I have 3 gpus on the system: 2 are ignored for GPUGrid and 1 is ignored for WCG. There are tasks running on the other 2 gpus for WCG. I have BOINC 7.0.36 running, thought the ignored GPUs would be accounted for in requesting tasks. Any ideas?

got a task. lowered cache to 1 day min / 1 day max additional. I was at 8 days min cache trying to get enough WCG GPU tasks in order not to run dry there, since they are way over estimated in the time to complete.

now I have 6 tasks... even though 2 gpus are ignored for GPUGrid using cc_config.xml. I can't find any option to limit the number of tasks per device or per project.

I use a 0.1/0.1 or 0.05/0.1 cache normally. Only reason for higher cache on this machine is I have 2 other GPUs working on WCG and I was running dry. I tried 0.01 cache before, but BOINC manager would run dry when one finished and waiting to download the next.

I am currently having a problem where BOINC requests tasks from GPUGrid.Net, but none are given. At first I thought it might be because my reported results from some previous work had a few errors, but according to my results (via http://www.gpugrid.net/results.php?userid=8048 )... the last reported error was 6 Nov 2012 | 13:22:26 UTC... which was exactly 1 week ago.

- Is there any way to further diagnose why I am not getting tasks?
- How long does the GPUGrid.net server usually "blacklist" a user or host for reporting bad results?
- Could they include a message to be shown in the BOINC Event Log, explaining WHY no tasks were given?

The issue resolved itself (which is a good thing, but also bad, because I won't be able to see what the sched_op_debug messages were.) I'll remember to do that next time, if the issue shows up again.

Also, I had been running cache settings of 0.1/0.1, but I saw your settings of 0.01/0.1 (which make even more sense to use on an always-on-always-connected computer)... so I have since switched to your 0.01/0.1 settings. Thanks for that idea.

I'm having the same problem here. 2 days searching for a solution, and nothing

Jhonatan:

That request shows that it was requesting for CPU only, and not for NVIDIA.
Per the server status page, there are currently no tasks available for the "CPU Only app" application.
See: http://www.gpugrid.net/server_status.php

So, that server request, and server response, all looks correct to me.

Jacob

Thanks!
